9. The Incredible Hulk
The Incredible Hulk is almost the black sheep of the Marvel Studios family. Despite a decent result at the box office, this is their only movie to not get a sequel, but there were a lot of behind-the-scenes issues which plagued this release from early on.
Star Edward Norton insisted on becoming involved with Zak Penn’s already uninspired screenplay, and the decision to make this a loose sequel to Ang Lee’s awful Hulk rather than a complete reboot seems like a strange decision when Marvel have so successfully retold the origin stories of their characters so far. Some spectacular action sequences helped this one stand out though, including an amazing final battle between Hulk and Abomination which could have been torn straight from the pages of a comic book.
The ending suggested that The Avengers would see the team battling Hulk, but that all changed when Joss Whedon came on board…
